The table shows the current rank of each book and the change since last week, where:

= same as last week

+/- change since last week

+ back on list

++ new on list

x no longer on list (number of x's: weeks off list)

All lists rank hardcovers and paperbacks separately, except for the USA Today list, which is a single list combining fiction and nonfiction in all formats. Dates shown are posted dates, except those in parentheses, which are dates compiled. New York Times posts its list one week in advance of print publication.

Note that some sources do not compile paperback bestsellers, and some exclude YA books (like the Harry Potter series) from their hardcover and paperback fiction lists.

Christopher Paolini's Eldest still ranks high on Amazon lists, but hasn't yet cracked print lists, though it debuts today at #132 on the USA Today list.

Bret Easton Ellis' Lunar Park (Knopf), a metafictional/autobiographical horror novel, debuts on several lists, as high as #6 on San Francisco Chronicle's hardcover fiction list.

Also debuting this week: David & Leigh Eddings' Crystal Gorge (Warner Aspect) at #31 on the New York Times fiction hardcover list; and Patrick Carman's YA novel Beyond the Valley of Thorns (Orchard), sequel to The Dark Hills Divide, at #2 on the NYT children's hardcover/chapter book list.
